Trevira has got new owners

As from the 1st October 2009 the new owners of Trevira will be the Frankfurt entrepreneurs Stefan Messer and Karl-Gerhard Seifert. They have demonstrated a long-term business interest in the polyester manufacturer. “On the basis of our own entrepreneurial experiences we intend to set the traditional brand of Trevira back on a successful course in the apparel, home textiles and automotive industries as well as in the hygiene sector, and secure maintenance of jobs in the long term. Following the many changes of ownership over the last decade, we are convinced that the restructured Trevira now possesses all the requisites to become a stable and sustainable business“. During the difficult period of insolvency and restructuring Trevira has, to a large extent, been able to build on the tremendous loyalty of its customers, who continued to hold fast to Trevira products, thus demonstrating their great confidence in the effectiveness of the company and its brands. The new company will comprise the three production sites Bobingen (Germany), Guben (Germany) and Zielona Góra (Poland), together with the sales location in Hattersheim near Frankfurt, involving a total of some 1450 employees.
